The event offers a unique opportunity to gain access to new ideas and new clients.

Why you should invest in commodities

In a global environment characterised by muted expectations for stock and bond returns on many main international markets and with worries about the sustainability of equity prices in the region, commodities have suddenly become the newest must-have investment. Historically misunderstood, probably undervalued and certainly under-owned, commodities are experiencing what many commentators believe is a long term commodities bull market run. This trend will have a major impact upon what has previously been considered mainstream prudent investment practice. This event will be ideal for investors and fund managers who are evaluating alternative investment strategies for future sustained growth.

Why the Middle East

The Middle East is the key energy region of the world and there is a long standing interest in metals and gold, while the trade in soft commodities is as old as civilisation itself. The important developments in local commodity exchanges and volatility in oil markets mean the Middle East is certainly not a region to be ignored. With a substantial HNWI populace and increasingly knowledgeable institutional investors, the Middle East is a highly attractive region for the international investment community. Those who have shown commitment to this region have been rewarded. There is fantastic potential for commodity investment products and commodity markets in the region.
